anxiety concern
My main concern is with the anxiety that has settled upon America.
weekend church pastor
We're also a multi-site church, so we have other pastors on other campuses who want to read the message before the video plays on the weekend services. So it just works better for me.

Every other religion is a salvation by self, Christianity is a salvation by Christ.
friday team sunday
Usually I'm able to prepare a message about two to three weeks in advance.I know some preachers don't like that. They want to be finishing it on Friday before they preach it on Sunday, but our worship team really likes me to get it done way in advance.
kind
Fredrick Buechner kind of loosened me up, hes got a little irreverency to him and I have a little too much reverancy.
kind like-you christianity
[ Christianity], in and of itself, sets itself apart inherently, and so, for somebody to say, Well it just seems to me like you can pick between all these religions and still have the same thing. Its kind of like somebody saying, You could pick between 80 bananas and one apple and say you have a banana. You cant call that apple a banana.
kind
Fredrick Buechner kind of loosened up my clerical collar, you might say.
couple
A couple of things have helped. One is that I dont travel any, that takes a lot of time from peoples schedules, if they travel, so I dont travel.

God can't fill you when you are already full of yourself.
kindness self giving
Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. To these I commit my day. If I succeed, I will give thanks. If I fail, I will seek his grace. And then, when this day is done, I will place my head on my pillow and rest.
happy-life done valuable
You are valuable because you exist. Not because of what you do or what you have done - but simply because you are.
would-be refrigerators ifs
If God had a refrigerator, your picture would be on it.
kindness grace want
Our Savior kneels down and gazes upon the darkest acts of our lives. But rather than recoil in horror, he reaches out in kindness and says, "I can clean that if you want." And from the basin of his grace, he scoops a palm full of mercy and washes away our sin.
kindness compassion be-kind
I choose kindness... I will be kind to the poor, for they are alone. Kind to the rich, for they are afraid. And kind to the unkind, for such is how God has treated me
